The property was disgusting, and the rooms floor has never been mopped. When I walked on it. My feet became black. I had to go and buy slippers in order to walk in my room. It was the most grossest place I’ve ever stayed in in my life. If I could give it a zero stars, I would I would not recommend to go to this motel six at all. It’s zero out of 10.

Staff is great, check in was a breeze, they are pet friendly but no area for pets to relieve themselves so my 13 year old dog peed in the middle of the road that goes through the property. Housekeeping was quite upset that some pee ran downhill towards where they were working, without reaching them. They verbalized their discontent and poured a whole big bottle of bleach on the puddle and down the little river of pee. It is my practice to pour about half a gallon of water over dog pee so the places he goes don't start to stink but i wasn't given a chance in this case, I apologized but I was not acknowledged. There were other pet owners walking their dogs around the parking area because that was the only place available. I don’t blame staff for being tired of a pet waste, it just seemed a little excessive to pour that much bleach essentially down the drain… it’s pretty toxic. The housekeeper that was cleaning the rooms around mine was very nice and went out of her way to let me know that she was available if I needed anything.
The only problem I had was roaches! I killed five roaches, the biggest one of which was crawling up my leg until I flipped it off, then it was on it’s back wriggling its legs, of course, I screamed, freaked out, hit it with my shoe, I hate doing that but what are you gonna do when boyfriend’s asleep? I suspect they may have been spraying in the next room over because they all came from that direction. Thankfully none crawled on me in bed!

A nice surprise

I will never hesitate again to take a room at Motel 6. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable and the lighting was good. The Southbay Motel 6 is not in a good area - ALOT of racing cars and motorcycles, but once I turned on TV, the sound wasn't that bad.

I stayed over a year ago for 10 nights and one year later the service is still top notch and the property is well maintained. The housekeepers are impeccable when it comes to cleaning and the rooms are modernly dated and comfortable. The only eyesore is due to underground sewage/plumbing along the entryway path. Otherwise, by far one of the top motel stays within the Motel 6 franchise!
